Chania (IPA , Greek: Xania', also transliterated as Hania, older form Chanea and Venetian: Canea, Godart and Olivier abbreviation: KH) is the second largest city of Crete and the capital of the Chania Prefecture. It lies along the north coast of the island, about 70 km west of Rethymno and 145 km west of Heraklion.

There are many fascinating remnants of the Venetians' occupation, including a fortress and arsenals, as well as that of the Turks, including a mosque.

gorge is an easy and popular day trip from here.

The Archaeological Museum of Hanja is well worth a visit!

This is one of the first photos that I took after moving to Crete. This is in the venetian old harbor, not far from the lighthouse. A very touristic photo, but don't judge me for that. When I took it, I was a tourist :-P Taken in November 2005
